My family had a great first-time experience with Simpson and Marwick in our recent purchase. Jill is very experienced and was very helpful in navigating all the paperwork needed. She guided us through the whole process and responded to our queries promptly. She kept us updated and informed every step of the way. Now we have a perfect house that fulfilled all of our expectations.

At relatively short notice we decided to sell our house in Murrayfield in October 2020. We shortlisted three agents and Simpson Marwick easily came out on top ( their website for example was the best in the marketplace) They were professional in every aspect of the sale: communication, guidance, advice and above all they were very pragmatic. The house sold within 10 days at a healthy price where both parties came out of the process extremely happy. Ironically we have now bought a house in East Lothian. We couldn’t use S&M for the purchase as they were selling the house but as the selling Agents , once again , they were great. Thank you Matthew, Jill and Richard.

The whole team was unbelievably amazing in the sale of our two flats and purchase in Edinburgh. Every single member of the team that we spoke to went over and above what was required. The team were absolutely amazing in helping us navigate the process and were also brilliant in helping with our purchase, giving really helpful advice and input and didn’t argue with any of our proposed low offers! They were absolutely brilliant at pushing through the process of getting missives signed, were really responsive and a pleasure to deal with. We felt in very safe hands throughout

The team at Simpson & Marwick did a great job with our sale. We had a personal visit from a valuer (which not every firm offered at that time) and achieved a valuation figure we were happy with, followed by a smooth viewing process that we could track using their app. Conveyancing was all handled very smoothly and professionally, too. We felt it was a really good-value experience.

Having worked in this sector 15 years ago, we were beyond impressed with the experience we had with Simpson and Marwick. From the very first interaction, their approach and professionalism was the best we had encountered over 4 property purchases / sales since 2005. The whole team involved in our purchase and sale this time round were exceptional – we cannot state that enough. The pro-active approach to manage expectations was excellent, and is one of the main elements to get right during the stresses of house moves. We will be recommending Simpson and Marwick to anyone that will listen, and should we ever want to move again (!), there is only one company we will go to.

We were apprehensive about buying and selling during Covid but Simpson & Marwick really took the stress out of the whole process. Richard and his team are so responsive, professional and just really great at their job. We had an offer accepted on the very first house we put an offer on and then sold our house in December within 5 days of it going on the market. We are really delighted and cannot thank them enough for all their advice and hard work.

Simpson and Marwick are … Simply Marvellous! We first met Richard Loudon, then Property Partner, 10 years ago when we bought a flat in the Edinburgh New Town. We knew immediately that we were in safe hands. So earlier this year, when it came to selling our flat, and buying a house in Stockbridge, we knew to whom we should turn. With 40+ years of experience, Richard has an unrivalled ‘feel’ for the Edinburgh property market. However, what sets him apart is the personal touch that he brings to his dealings with his clients. By turns pro-active and responsive, he invests a huge amount of his own time and energy in achieving the best possible outcome for them. Richard is supported by a first-rate team, including Matthew Munro who handled the business of marketing and selling our flat with great skill and aplomb, and Bobby Fife and Carolyn Jones who dealt with the conveyancing in a highly efficient manner. No questions or issues were too small for any of them; e-mails and telephone calls were answered promptly and reassuringly; and patience and understanding shown to us every step of the way. To steal a line from Dorothy in the ‘Wizard of Oz’, when it comes to buying or selling property in Edinburgh, there’s no place like Simpson and Marwick!

We used Simpson and Marwick recently for the sale of our existing property and purchase of our new one. They were extremely helpful throughout and the guidance they provided through these particularly trickier times was spot on. Never had to chase them for any updates they always kept us well informed and whenever they needed to complete something for us it was done in a timely manner.

"In late September 2020 we decided to put our Morningside house on the market and arranged for a meeting with a representative of the agents we have historically used for our property transactions in Edinburgh. Following the meeting and receipt of their marketing proposal we were not totally happy so we decided to seek a second opinion and contacted Simpson & Marwick. We are so glad that we did. Richard Loudon came around to to see us and took the time to give us a detailed overview of the current market, understanding our drivers and requirements and fully explored the options open to us to achieve our objectives. From that point on Richard and his team were there every step of the way - through the sale of our Morningside property and the purchase of two properties. The marketing and sales process that Simpson & Marwick use is very well thought through and worked like a dream - resulting in the sale of our house within 3 weeks. At all the critical negotiating points Richard was there to safely guide us through. All the legal processes were superbly handled by the experienced Simpson & Marwick team and their recommendations (for example, which removals company to use) were great. In summary they were professional in every aspect of the sale and purchases processes and in their communication, guidance, advice in what has to be one of the most stressful processes we subject ourselves to. Thank you. Janey & Mike February 2021”

We recently instructed Simpson & Marwick to look after the sale of our house and we thoroughly recommend their service for the sale and the conveyancing. A professional team of knowledgable staff and we got the sense that the agent really knew the market and how to advise us on the best way to handle the offer we received. The results were very impressive and we put that down to their negotiation with the buyer. The conveyancing was also very well handled and we felt very well advised as we were guided through a few hurdles. Well done to the team, top quality! We will be back next time!
